Hi...I am so sorry to hear all that you had to go to. My daughter just started on cortef last week and the pharmacy didn't have the meds and I was really nervous that we may not have received the right meds. I went to three other drug stores just to make sure I had been given the right thing. Our pharmacist is about 80 yrs. old and I think he should probably retire, because he does make alot of errors. My daughter has never taken pills befor so We give her meds at 7:00am...noon....7:00pm. She takes hers in apple sauce, pudding, ice cream anything that she can swallow without chewing. So far....so good. Lisa
